To Celebrate
50th Anniversary
ROYAL—June 14 is Flag Day
all aver the USA, but to Mr. and
Mrs. C. E. Rundquist of Royal
the date holds an added signifi
cance, since it marks their gold
en wedding anniversary this
year. It also means 50 years of
continuous service to the public
in Rundquist’s General Merchan
dise store which has been in oper
ation for 55 years, since 1961 when
the late Matthias Rundquist went
into business here.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Rundquist
are of pioneer parentage. Mr.
Rundquist is one of nine children
of the late Matthias and Minnie
Rundquist who homesteaded south
of Royal, the farm now owned
and occupied by the James Peter
son family. Of this family, three
brothers, Herman, Santa Ana,
Calif., Reuben, Clearwater, Gus,
Berthoud, Colo., and one sister,
(Anna) Mrs. W. J. Reefe of Royal,
are living.
Mr. Rundquist has seen the vil
lage grow and decline from the
beginning. He stated that he was
two years old when the Short Line
went through Sioux City to O’
Neill. Jtust when the village was
incorporated is uncertain, since
all early records were destroyed
by fire. However, Rundquist’s
store is the only business enter
prise that has existed since the
beginning and that still is in op
eration.
Mr. Rundquist obtained his ear
ly schooling in the Prairie Gem
rural school and later in Royal,
then entered Wayne State Teach
er’s college for a year. He taught
two terms of school in the vi
cinity, was graduated from War
ner’s Business college in Sioux
City.
Mrs. Rundquist was born Ol
lie May Boyd, the only daughter
and the second child of the late
Albert and Gertrude Boyd whose
home was the farm west of town
owned and occupied by Miles
Thom*. The Boyds later built
a flour mill near the head waters
of the Verdigris, a mile and a
half northeast of the village.
There Mr. Boyd sustained injuries
while doing heavy lifting and
died when Ollie May was two
years of age.
She lived for a time with her
Uncle Joe and Aunt Della Eyer.
Her early education was obtain
ed in rural schools, and a few
months in Neligh while her mo
ther was employed there. Later
Mrs. Boyd married B. B. Bone
steel and it was as Gertie Bone
stell that she was known in later
days.
Ollie attended school in Wayne
for a short time and then went
to work in B. B. Bonestell’s Gen
eral store which was across the
street from Rundquist’s store.
Having a common occupational
interest may have been the draw
ing card that provided a mutual
topic of conversation that even
tually led to the joining of “two
lives but a single thought, two
hearts that beat as one”
Be that as it may, the mar
riage took place at the home of
the bride’s mother, on June 14,
1911, the house being the one now
owned and occupied by the Hans
Hofer family.
The officiating minister was the
Rev. John Allen. The bridesmaid
was Mamie Eyer, a cousin (now
Mrs. Almen of Mead) and the
bestman was Gus Rundquist, bro
ther of the bridegroom now liv
ing Colorado. Guests present were
the parents of the groom, his bro
thers Albert and wife, and Her
man and wife; his sister, Anna
and husband, Will Reefe, and the
bride’s sister-in-HaW, Mrs. Guy
Boyd and daughter, Twinkle. Din
ner was served by the bride’s
mother, Mrs. Bonestell.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Rund
quist recalls, that the bridal par
ty rode to Neligh in a high wheel
International car, chauffered by
Bert Miller, to have their pic
tures taken.
The bride’s dress was of soft
figured white silk, fashioned with
a gathered bodice set onto an
all-over lace yoke that dropped
over the shoulders, and with a
high lace collar. The sleeves
were elbow length with wide
tucked cuffs. (The Norris Sisters,
Brunswick, made the dress.) The
gathered skirt was trimmed with
two wide satin bias flounces. The
bridesmaid’s dress was similar
to that of the bride. Mrs. Rund
quist still has her wedding dress.
The newly-weds began house
keeping where Russell Burch now
lives, the house being the one
occupied by Harold Francis. La
ter they built the house occupied
by L. H. Sawyer, then moved to
the place occupied by William
Mitties. From there they moved
to the place built by the late Ir
ve Swetnand, and more recently
to the home they now occupy
which is next door to the house
where they were married.
During the early years of their
married life, both participated in
home talent plays and were mem
bers of the Methodist church
choir. For many years they sang
at funerals, not only in Royal, but
at Neligh, Clearwater, Orchard
and at home funerals in the vi
cinity.
It was about this time that Mr.
Rundquist and others, including
the late Bob Thurston, Albert
Rundquist, Jim Johnston, W. E.
Butler, H. S. Fumald, Ed Field,
Julius He ring, and others from
Orchard, organized the Masonic
lodge in Royal, the first meetings
being held in Ewing. Mr. Rund
quist holds the Jordan Medal, giv
en for having the oldest member

ship in the Diamond lodge at Or
chard. Both he and Mrs. Rund
quist are charter members of the
Sunset Chapter Order of the the
Eastern Star at Orchard.
Mr. Rundquist in his youth and
middle age was an enthusiastic
sports fan. He played baseball
with the Royal Creek Rats for
25 years. He was long a mem
ber of the Royal band, playing
baritone, in the days when the
band was well known and was
called on to fill engagements at
fairs, ball tournaments and sim
ilar gatherings.
For many years, Mr. Rundquist
served on the Town Board and on
the school board, and on commit
tees too numerous to mention.
Mrs. Rundquist’s accomplish
ments are many. She is a wo
man of diversified talents. Her
culinary ability is so well known
that if any one needs a recipe
that she cannot find, someone is
certain to say “Ask Ollie. 9he
has it, or if not, she will find it
for you.” Mrs. Rundquist has as
sisted at every banquet, church
dinner, bazaar, Scout and Camp
fire dinner and every other sim
ilar “feed” ever held in Royal.
Many are the elaborate dinners
she has served in her home.
She is also an artistic needle
woman whose lace-making, em
broidery, crochet and other simi
lar needlework has been great
ly admired and her patterns
sought since teenage days. She
has also done a great deal of
quilting, “but I never pieced but
one quilt”, she said. During both
World Wars she was an enthus
iastic worker in the Red Cross
and gave much of her time and
talent.
Mrs. Rundquist’s outstanding
characteristic, so much admired
by those who know her well, is
her modest, retiring manner, the
quiet way in which she performs
many kind deeds, seeking no self
adulation.
Mr. and Mrs. Rundquist are
the parents of three children;
Glenn, a veteran of World War
II, whose death occured in Jan
uary this year; Gwendolyn Mor
rison, and Corrine, Mrs. Clarence
Thomsen, living on a farm south
of town. There are seven grand
children. The three children are
graduates of the local high school,
and have attended higher schools
of learning.
Mrs. Rundquist has two half
brothers, George Bo nested of
Chadron and Gordon Bonestell of
Newell, S. D., and a half-sister,
Twinkle Wheeler in California.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Rundquist
have spent their entire 50 years
serving the public in Rundquist s
store.
Beginning with pioneer days,
and down through the years, the
store was something of a com
munity center. Every Wednesday
and Saturday night, folks from
the trade territory made it a
point to go to town to “trade”,
to attend lodge, and to visit with
relatives and friends. “See you
next week at Rundquist’s” was
a watchword or slogan for many
years, and even yet the third
and fourth generation of the pi
oneers meet at the store by pre
arrangement to visit and to shop.
Friendliness, unselfishness, will
ingness to be of service, are
among the Outstanding character
istics of this couple who have won ,
and held so many friends
throughout the half century of
their married life, which has been |
spent in public service.
Their home is one where hos
pitality reigns supreme and
where relatives and friends re
ceive a warm welcome. The latch
string hangs outside.
The number of persons whom
they have met in the store dur
ing the 50 years cannot be es
timated but must number several
thousand, and it is safe to say
that none ever forgets the caur- j
teous treatment accorded.
